During the Spring 1997 semester, 12 student teams conducted empirical studies of user interfaces as their term-length project in Computer Science 434: Human Factors in Computer and Information Systems taught by Dr. Ben Shneiderman. The online reports of these projects include links to previous research and related systems. Each team produced their online version according to a workplan and a template, coordinated by a student editorial team.
